About this template

Teams relitigate assumptions they already disproved. This log keeps one record per hypothesis: hypothesis ID and statement, context and background, the expected outcome, evidence source, test method, test result, conclusion, follow-up decision, owner, date logged and notes. Twelve fields, one submission per bet, and the register becomes the memory that stops a disproven assumption coming back for another sprint.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes a hypothesis well-stated here?
Falsifiability: "users want X" is a wish; "fewer than 20% complete signup without X" can be wrong, so it can be logged.
How big should a test be?
The smallest evidence that could move confidence a step — interviews of five before instrumented pilots of thousands.
What happens to refuted bets?
They stay in the log — the archive is the value; the next "obvious idea" gets checked against what already failed.
Who owns an entry?
One named owner per hypothesis; shared ownership quietly untests things.
Can research and product share one log?
Yes — that is the point; product decisions and research findings reference the same entries.
Does the hypothesis log cost per entry?
Yes — one shared log per team is how it should run.
